Encloses pamphlets and would be pleased with any remarks of approbation.
Sending one of his tracts. Comments on the subject of duplicate equalities.
Hopes the almanac he sent him has arrived safely. Intends it for the use of country schoolteachers. Has found a new and easy proof for one of W. R. Hamilton's theorems.
Sorry to hear that the almanac did not reach him. Would be glad for any of JH's comments. Has put previous address.
Is glad his article on central forces pleased him. Sends one of his latest solutions. Would like a few lines by way of a testimonial. Has been unfortunate when applying for positions as he has lacked support.
